Summerfest, is Salisbury’s popular summer beer and cider festival, which returns to the Guildhall on 20th and 21st June 2025.

Local ales will be at the heart of the festival, which is run by the Salisbury & South Wiltshire branch of the Campaign for Real Ale (CAMRA).

The local branch of CAMRA which produces the popular Barrel Organ magazine recently announced the Wyndham Arms, owned by Hopback Brewery, as City Pub of the Year.

Organisers of the annual event say drinks will be sold in half pint and one-third of a pint measures and card-carrying CAMRA members will get half a pint free.

In response to customer feedback from last year’s event, CAMRA are extending the closing time on Saturday evening to 9.00pm and splitting the day into two separate sessions.

Tickets are available from the CAMRA website: www.salisburycamra.org.uk/events

If you buy tickets before 31st May, tickets for the Friday and Saturday lunchtime sessions are retained at the same price as last year (£10).

However, tickets purchased after that will cost £12. Tickets for the Saturday evening session are £8.

Organisers are keen to add, "Last year’s event sold out in advance so anyone wishing to attend the 2025 festival is advised to book as soon as possible."
